AN
EVENING OF WORDS AND MUSIC
What's new ?
The
Government is planning a huge expansion of Heathrow Airport. It
wants a third runway, a sixth terminal, and a massive increase in
flights from 480,000 to 702,000 a year. It wants a new flight path
right through the heart of Bedford Park, spanning North Chiswick and
South Acton. It also wants to increase flights on existing routes
over Grove Park by eliminating runway alternation. The local
consequences in terms of increased noise, traffic congestion and
atmospheric pollution are obvious, as are the more general
environmental problems associated with airport expansion.
CRASH
was founded to represent the views of residents of Chiswick and
South Acton in the discussions regarding Heathrow expansion. If
you'd be interested in participating in this group, as part of a
coordinated effort to lobby the Government, please
contact us.

The
Government has been carrying out a public consultation on the
expansion programme, but this ended on 27th February. However, there are
still many other ways of making your views known, and this website includes our current
suggestions for the best ways of registering
your opposition, along with related web links and resources.

| IT'S
NOT TOO LATE >> |
A
lot of people assume that the next step in the continuing expansion
of Heathrow is now a 'done deal', but this just isn't true. There
is a huge amount of opposition to the plans, and there is still a
lot of scope to influence the outcome, but only if people motivate
themselves to express their views before it really is too late. If
you care about this, now is the time to act. |
